Before he recently died he had written a book entitled Walking Home on his experiences in a walk from Cairns in North Queensland to Stanthorpe, a distance of around 2000 kilometres. This 2000 WALK as it became known helped him to reconnect to Australia after many years living and working overseas but was primarily focussed on drawing attention to the nearly 2000 languages that do not yet have any part of God’s Word translated. Apart from being a great read about a wild adventure the book challenges the reader regarding the need for Bible translation. The book is on sale at a special discount price for TMPC of $15 per copy with all proceeds going to the work of Bible translation. To order a copy or for more information please contact Jennifer Nicol (mobile 0438294529) WALKING HOME by ANDREW SAV CelebraƟng Our Heritage: The 500th Anniversary of the Birth of the Protestant ReformaƟon 2017 is a special year for all Christians, especially Protestants, because this year marks the 500th year anniversary of the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. It was on October 31, 1517 that Martin Luther nailed a series of questions and objections to Roman Catholic doctrines and practices--his so-called--'Ninety-Five Theses'--to the door of the castle church in Wittenburg, Germany, where Luther was a theology professor and pastor. Of course, the Protestant Reformation was the driving religious force behind the creation and development of the modern world. But for Christians, the significance of Luther's contribution lies in the recovery of core features of the Christian gospel. In his Ninety-Five Theses, Luther objected to several doctrines and practices of the Roman Catholic church. Principally, Luther objected to the church's practice of 'selling indulgences,' or the notion that one could exchange money in order to reduce the punishments that one would receive from God, for sins committed in this life. Most contemporary Christians familiar with Martin Luther rightly highlight his recovery of the scriptural doctrine of justification by faith alone: namely, that believers are declared righteous before God because they receive the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ, which they embrace in repentance and consequently, through a living faith characterised by love and good works. While Luther intended his theses to ignite academic debate within the church, its subsequent publication by others throughout Germany, helped spread the birth of a popular religious revolution known as the Protestant Reformation. The Reformation spread throughout Europe through the efforts of others, such as Huldrych Zwingli and Heinrich Bullinger (Switzerland), Thomas Cramner (England), Martin Bucer (Germany), John Knox (Scotland) and many others. Though our church, as a Presbyterian body, traces its historical roots to the Reformed tradition--more closely associated with John Calvin than with Luther--Calvin is well-known for his indebtedness to Luther. Additionally, our denomination-Presbyterian Church of Queensland--lists, among its basic theological distinctives, the 'Five Solas of the Reformation.' The Five Solas were not original to Luther or any other of the first-generation Reformers (so-called 'Magisterial Reformers'), but instead represent a theological summary--devised in the 20th century--of key teachings of the Protestant Reformation. Our denomination acknowledges the seminal importance of this summary when it describes the key features of our profession of faith in the terms of the Five Solas, which are: (1) Sola Scriptura [i.e.,'by Scripture alone']: that the Scriptures alone are the final and infallibly sufficient rule of interpretation in matters concerning salvation; This means that neither individual religious experience or church tradition are authoritative for determining either the content and meaning of Christian doctrine and life. Succinctly, the Bible is the source for learning about how to be made right with God and the BIble itself determines what it intends to communicate about those matters. Scripture alone reveals what is necessary for salvation and, in this regard, Scripture is its own interpreter. (2) Sola Fide [i.e., 'by faith alone']: that Christ's righteousness, sufficient for complete salvation, is imputed completely through the instrument of faith, which is itself a gift from God; This means that neither individual works of Christian obedience (e.g., prayers, tithes, charity, etc) nor 'faith plus these works' are the basis for receiving salvation. Instead, it is only through faith that we receive all of the benefits of Salvation because of the integrity of the Object of our faith--Christ--and not even because of the amount or quality of our faith. (3) Sola Gratia [i.e., 'by grace alone']: that salvation comes through grace alone (unmerited favour), and not by human works; This means that salvation is entirely a gift of God. The grace by which we receive salvation manifests itself as Christ's righteousness being credited to our account and not because grace was infused into our hearts in a manner that creates change in our lives nor because we cooperated with God's grace to achieve salvation. (4) Solus Christus [i.e., 'by Christ alone']: that Christ--not the priesthood--is alone the mediator between God and man; This means that Christ alone creates our access to God. In order to pray to God, to be heard by God, to receive the graces of salvation (including baptism and Lord's Supper), Jesus Christ is the only mediator we need. And while not every Christian is or can be a minister, in the formal sense, every Christian is a priest inasmuch as they have access to the presence of God, can (and must!) offer their lives as a sacrifice to God, and they receive God Himself as their possession in eternal life. (5) Sola Deo gloria [i.e., 'glory to God alone']: that to God belongs the glory, for all things but especially, for salvation in Christ. This means that glory--or, appreciation, worship, adulation, praise, etc--can not and should not be rendered or attributed to anyone but God. Not to Mary. Not to the angels. And not to the saints. As was common in the Roman Catholic Church. Continued....... Continued....... As we shall see, the themes of the Protestant Reformation--in both the Lutheran and Reformed traditions--continue to be relevant for contemporary Christians in Australia. Thus, throughout the year, I will be writing a short article each month to highlight some of the features of our Protestant heritage. As we proceed in this 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, we will explore in greater detail the Five Solas, as well as the defining features of the history of our tradition, specifically with the purpose of gaining a better understanding and appreciation for the Protestant Reformation in the recovery of the essential characteristics of the Christian gospel. Rick D Quinn PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS Germany In one of the recent magazines of Israel My Glory, they reported that thousands of Christians, (it has been estimated that number to be about 40,000), who fled to Germany from Islamic countries for safety and religious freedom, now face violence, harassment, and death threats for their faith from Muslim refugees in Germany’s asylum camps. The forms of abuse can be verbal insults, physical assaults (sometimes multiple attacks can occur) and death threats against themselves and their families. Some of the refugees have said that even the security guards harass them for their faith. Most of the Christians in the camps are converts from Islam who have escaped Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan. They fled to Germany expecting to find safety and religious freedom. Sadly, they are finding more and more that they are in as much danger from radical Muslims in Europe as they were in their home countries. A Christian from Iran told reporters she must conduct her Bible studies in secret for fear of persecution because if they find out, she will be fair game. Pray for these refugees that our Lord would sustain them physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Pray that the German government would place Christians in separate camps and hire more non-Muslim security guards. Pray for justice and protection and for a Safe Haven for them where they can find freedom and security. Pray that the government would deport immigrants who persecute Christians. Hungary Barnabas Fund has reported that in September 2016 Hungary created a new government department whose purpose is to help persecuted Christians. This follows years of covert help by the Hungarian government for Christians in the Middle East. One of the speakers for the government, Eduard von Habsburg, has explained that one aim of going public was to set an example to other nations in Europe. “Somehow the idea of defending Christians has acquired a bad taste in Europe, as if it means excluding other people” he said. Pray that other European nations will indeed be inspired by Hungary’s example to help Christians suffering because of their faith. Pirjo Tamborine Mountain Community Christmas Event Julie Eotvos has extended an invitation to the churches of Tamborine Mountain to participate together in presenting a large scale Christmas event, aptly named The Tamborine Mountain Community Christmas Event, as an outreach to both the local and wider community. We believe this event will not only serve as an outreach, but that it will also unite our community as it brings to life the true meaning of Christmas and its message; something that very sadly, is gradually being eroded by present popular culture and current belief systems. This Christmas event comprises three integral parts: The Bethlehem Trail: This is where history will be recreated as the Convention Centre grounds are transformed into the streets of Bethlehem where the Christmas story, as foretold in the Gospels, will be re enacted so that the audience may witness the events that led up to the birth of Jesus Christ. Carols by Candlelight: The Bethlehem Trail will culminate in a ‘Carols by Candlelight’ style gala concert including performances by local and celebrity guest artists. The Moreton Bay Symphony Orchestra will return and combine once again with The Tamborine Mountain Orchestra, the Tamborine Mountain Dance Academy AND our schools to make this a truly excellent cultural event. The Chamber of Commerce are also supportive of this event and have been assisting with it’s promotion. Food Stalls/soup kitchen and Secret Pantry there will also be food stalls - set up in a similar way to how the Day of Thanks operated along with soup kitchen and Secret Pantry, to assist and provide much needed relief to those in our community that are struggling to make ends meet. It also plans to support, where possible, certain charitable organisations. The Steering Committee for this event will also be making applications for various government grants, but will be seeking sponsorship and donations. HOW CAN YOU HELP? We need actors, singers, musicians, AND animals. We will need caterers, people to bake cakes and or savouries etc, volunteers to man stalls, guides/ attendants, set up/pack down etc. Advertising/distributing flyers, word of mouth and so on. To give you a better idea of what help is needed, or in what ways you can be involved, we are having an Information Evening on the 14th February commencing at 7pm out at the Convention Centre Panorama Homestead on Beacon Road. Supper will be provided. If you are interested in attending and being a part of this amazing event please let either Julie 0458 005 989 or Karen Partridge 0407 762 098 know by the 11th Feb (for catering purposes).
